Use the Create Internal Sales Orders process to send requisition information from approved, inventory-sourced requisition lines to the Order Management interface tables. Then the OrderImport process is run from within Order Management to generate the internal sales orders. You can set the Create Internal Sales Orders and OrderImport processes to run automatically at specified intervals.
The Create Internal Sales Orders process automatically schedules internal orders by setting the Schedule Ship Date on the order to the request date. If a subinventory is specified on the internal requisition line, Order Management reserves the goods and uses only the specified subinventory for allocation. If the goods do not exist at the specified subinventory, Order Management backorders them, even if they do exist in another subinventory.
The Create Internal Sales Orders process loads the Order Management open interface, OrderImport, using the order type you define in the Purchasing Options window. OrderImport creates internal sales orders from the records in the interface table, and determines the order cycle and defaults values based on the order type.
